What We Do

I always wanted to learn hip hop and I really enjoyed getting introduced to this style! Big Will made it fun, accessible and thorough for everyone to learn. Thank you!

The classes were fun, well paced and suitably challenging. We received solid instruction on basic dance steps. Chris’s music snd choreography were a highlight!

I love to dance, and Chris’s classes reignited my desire to keep learning while I enjoy it and exercise. The best combination ever!
Thank you!

Every dance class was enjoyable. Sarah is a talented and supportive teacher. Her classes are inclusive, fun, and offer the right amount of challenge. She inspires you to improve and become your best self.

I loved my class with Big Will and Dylan. It was extremely welcoming and completely non-judgmental. Both Big Will and Dylan were super encouraging and made everyone laugh and have a good time as we all tried something new together. The music choices were also great. If you’re looking to try hip-hop, look no further. I absolutely recommend this class!

Chris is a great instructor – excellent break down of steps, attentive to individual learning needs, great music & pace – FUN!

The energy and community of the classes were amazing! If I was having a bad day it was already turned around within the warmup, I would definitely recommend this class as it is a great start into dance! I am so excited to continue my dance journey with Chris as you can tell that he is really passionate about what he does and creates an incredible environment for all 🙂

Chris was a fantastic teacher and made learning the basics a lot of fun. Shout out to the lovely people in the class as well.

Chris is an excellent teacher! I’m going back for more classes.

I had such a great time learning to dance with Chris. Chris is a fantastic teacher and helped me a lot with learning to not overthink dancing and just enjoy myself. The classes were fun and focused on making a friendly and welcoming environment for everyone to learn to dance in. I feel much more confident dancing and can’t wait to continue with further classes. I am so glad I made the decision to sign up for classes after putting it off for years! 🙂

I did the Saturday basic dance with Chris and i am so happy I did .Chris is an amazing teacher and amIng person ,after the first class you just want to keep dancing and that’s what I love about his classes : no matter your level or your ability you just want to move ,his music has great beat,you can add some sing along and he creates a positive energy in the class, his sequences makes it easy for the students and he gives you time to pause and work on each step .You definitely after this course you just want to keep going ! I know I will !!! Thank you so much 

I’ve absolutely loved my first term of Tap Basics. I’m one of the older dancers in the class – and currently the only bloke – but I’ve been made to feel really welcome. Leanne is a clear and encouraging teacher who breaks down the steps and builds up a routine brilliantly. She has a witty, winning style. Our class is well-attended but even so Leanne is great at spotting if you need a little help and always open to questions. I’m really thrilled with the progress I’ve made in just five weeks. It’s also a great workout!

Attending Ballet Basics with Sarah was such a grounding and confidence boosting experience. Her knowledge, clarity, and genuine care for every participant created a space that felt welcoming, empowering, and inspiring. As both a teacher and colleague, I truly value the way she breaks down technique with kindness and expertise, making ballet accessible and joyful at any level.

Sarah was a great teacher, and made classes really beginner friendly and fun. The course was a great introduction into a completely new genre, and was a great learning curve for someone with no previous experience! Would highly recommend.

Fab 50’s is more than just a dance class. It’s a place to find friendship with other like minded people who love to move and groove to great music. You will also find a supportive network of people who understand what it’s like to find themselves at “that” time of life.
Come and see for yourself self. You will truly love it.

I had the best time in the basics course with Sarah. I would recommend it to anyone who’s looking to try/return to ballet. The technical aspects are balanced with fun and Sarah is a really friendly and inclusive teacher. Each class helped build my confidence and my co-ordination – so much so that I’m signing up for another round!

I attended 4 weeks of hip hop basics with Big Will and I would recommend this class to anyone for a number of reasons. Whether it’s to learn dance, fitness, social or mental health; this class is perfect for all. Big Will is not only patient, kind and thorough, he is so great at explaining things to a range of people.

Leanne is a fantastic teacher, she brings a lot of humour together with her tap dancing expertise to make classes heaps of fun whilst learning. I am loving my tap experience and subsequently I am going back for more!

A great class for absolute beginners, I didn’t feel awkward or too old, every step is explained and demonstrated many times. Good to get you fit and mentally challenging too.

My sister and I had a great time doing the dance basics course! We have both never danced before and wanted to try something new. We learnt heaps and it was a very supportive fun environment. Thank you 🙂

Big Will is amazing! I recently attended his Hip Hop Basics class which is suitable for anyone at any level . Big Will is a passionate and highly skilled instructor who loves what he does! He is inspiring, high-energy and funny, and makes everyone feel included and confident , whilst making every minute of every class a fun and enjoyable one ! His joy in dancing is contagious ! Addictive experience overall 👌😎 … can’t wait to come back . Highly recommended !!

Big Will makes the class fun and enjoyable, he knows how to make the class laugh and loosen up. Also good teaching, making sure everyone has a turn on being at the front.

The 6 week course was fantastic! I enjoyed every moment. Caitlin really took the time to teach us the techniques, how to improve and amazing choreography that’s was so much fun to learn. Highly recommend the course!

It was great! As a total beginner I felt confident and supported the whole time. I would definitely come back 🥳

I was a bit nervous starting this course but Chris is an amazing teacher. It was wonderful to see the progression each week. I loved coming to each class. Thank you.

Awesome class thanks Big Will for your energy and vibe so much fun

Caitlyn was an incredible teacher – so fun, and provided such a professional level of teaching, helping us with strength and conditioning to help us feel safe in our heels! I unfortunately couldn’t finish the course as I had unforeseen schedule changes that clashed with the time, but I wish I could have kept going! Highly recommend!

Chris is a fantastic teacher. He made it fun and relaxed for a complete beginner ..  thank you !

An amazing non judgemental and welcoming environment which I looked forward to week to week.

Had such a great time in the Dance Basics course with Chris, his energy, humour and music selection was awesome. I am definitely going to keep dancing and look forward to attending some more classes soon.

Kane was my dance teacher for the first  2 lessons and I absolutely loved how he taught u the fundamentals and he really showed us what it is to be a good dancer and he really focused so well on having a good foundation which I didn’t realise how necessary it was and it really made a difference to my moves!

Love Wednesday Heels classes with Ashanti. Nice warm up and stretch,   heel walk and turn technique and always great choreography. Recommend to everyone that wants to learn sass on heels.

Not usually one for reviews, but this studio deserves it. After years of modern jazz and ballroom, I decided to give ballet a whirl—and Justin made it an absolute blast. He’s the perfect mix of encouragement, technique, and humor. The vibe here is all about learning, improving, and having a great time while doing it. I’ve also tried classes with other teachers and had a fantastic time with them too. Amazing studio—thanks for all the effort you put into making it such a fun place to dance!

Participating in tap classes at the Dance Workshop has given me a new zest for life! The warm, encouraging, and non-judgmental atmosphere put me at ease allowing me to express myself freely.  At the same time the school does not compromise on quality when it comes to stage performances.  I am grateful to have met so many inspirational people – still tapping at age 70 plus!

I have attended adult tap classes for nearly 20 years in different locations.

The Dance Workshop is the only studio I know  where students learn continuously at classes following an annual syllabus .  During the year, EVERY student improves.

The over 50’s Jazz class is so uplifting. A range of dance moves and styles are taught, so you never get bored. In the class Ashanti gives a lot of attention to technique and the ‘feel’ of the music. It is a non judgemental space, with an amazing group of women and a lot of fun as well !

I am so glad I decided to give this class a try. 2 years down the track it is my favourite activity of the week. It’s so much fun.! What a great way to exercise plus be part of a welcoming, friendly community. Ashanti is a wonderful teacher.

Leanne is one of Australia’s top tap teachers! An absolute ball of passion, energy, and fun. I look forward to her classes greatly every week.

Heels beginners is an Awesome class. New dance every week. Everyone is very encouraging of each other. At the end I always feel great and more confident than before.

I have just finished the Dance Basics course with the fabulous Dee Dee and what a fun and energising 5 weeks it was! Dee Dee was so vibrant and encouraging and the whole class was swept up in her enthusiasm every week.

I am so glad that my work friend and I took the leap and enrolled. Our weekly classes were the talk of the office and our colleagues looked forward to our demos in the lunchroom – we LOVED it!

I first read an article about “Ballet for Veterans” which is a program for returned vets suffering from PTSD in Queensland and that lead me to the Silver Swans, which started in 2017. As a person of a certain age, the gym and other get fit programs are not for me so I thought I would give this a go and it has been a revelation. Never danced in my life other than awkward gyrations in my youth and it really is such fun, plus, surprise surprise you don’t go home feeling stiff and saw which was a great revelation. Vivian is very thoughtful and kind with her encouragement and support for the ‘lesser beings’ in the group, so you never feel inferior, stupid or awkward, everyone just moves to their own pace, are very caring and it’s just a wonderful experience. So glad I found it !!

This class is a joy. Karen’s classes provide an achievable challenge and her clear presentation and faultless technique just work for me. Her music selection is inspiring and the beautiful choreography fits so very well. Makes my heart sing and stresses just evaporate.

Daryl’s classes are brilliant! He is a passionate, creative, beautiful (yep, that too!) and kind teacher. From the first minute, Daryl establishes a safe and supportive environment for all dancers, where we can improve and challenge ourselves or just have fun. Daryl’s technique is amazing, and sometimes it is rewarding just looking at him demonstrate the steps. I love his creative choreographies. Every week there are new and engaging sequences of steps with a wide range of music. Can’t recommend his classes enough 🙂

This class is amazing. It has everything,cardio, technique and most of all fun. Ashanti is a wonderful teacher who makes everyone feel welcome and the ladies are friendly ,supportive and inclusive. Such a blessing to be in this class.

These lovely classes (Weds 5.15 and Fri 10.45) cater to all my ballet needs/ wishes. The beautiful sequences give a feeling of truly dancing and bring the joy that comes with that feeling. This is made more achievable by Justin’s attention to detail in developing the technique necessary for these steps.

I am truly grateful for having discovered these classes and a teacher who understands exactly what is required.

A wonderful nurturing dance school for adults of all ages and levels. Ashanti is a patient well organised teacher. Her routines are fabulous well thought out and of the right level for the class. I throughly enjoy her classes and look forward to attending each week.

I have been enjoying flamenco at DWS for 10 years now and love it more than ever.  The community and quality of the lessons are fantastic.  Everyone at DWS is so friendly and helpful.  I would attend every day if I could.  The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and respectful I have made so many great friends and when I am dancing I get to exercise regularly without even realising I am.  Can highly recommend flamenco at DWS – come and join us!

This is the best dance studio I have attended in Perth. Teachers are amazing , staffs are very helpful and friendly. I have been attending classes almost everyday for over a year now since moved to Perth from Sydney last year and it’s become an Important part of my life and I missed my classes so much while I was away travelling!

I’m happy with the class, Rafaela is amazing,
